On 31st October, The Body Shop store at the Colombo City Centre celebrated this choice of style with the distinguished guests who gathered to grace the occasion. The guest of honor, Tashie Roberts, an experienced entrepreneur, helped shed light on the remarkable journey of The Body Shop and the role of independent changemakers in shaping a systemic change. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect. World Vegan Day is not only a day to celebrate veganism but also a day to reflect on the impact of our choices.
